专辑介绍

by Dave Thompson

No surprises here! Mud Rock, Vol. 2 was cut precisely in the same mould as its predecessor, a &live in the studio&-style party knees up, with the band powering through a string of favorite oldies, catchy classics, and of course, a hit 45 or two, and probably not breaking a sweat throughout. A primo singles band, Mud really weren't stretched on LP until a change of labels in 1976 finally allowed them to start making records that spoke for their own musical tastes and abilities; by comparison, Mud Rock, Vol. 2, despite some red hot fun performances, is simply the sound of a band on cruise control. There are some magnificent moments here, however. All summer sun and swaying palm trees, the Hawaiian guitar-powered &Hula Love& is irresistibly corny, while &Let's Have a Party& and &One Night& are balls-out rockers that prove just how far ahead of the revivalist pack Mud could have been, had their producers only permitted them to take that step. An oddly lugubrious &Living Doll& is more a showcase for its producers than its players, but the hits &Oh Boy& and &The Secrets That You Keep& bring Mud back into brilliant focus, and no matter how functional this album is, there's no doubting its entertainment value.
